There were articles early in Trump's time in office where our diplomats and administration officials were telling our allies and not-allies to ignore what Trump said about America's foreign policy.

Trump was very aggressive in his semi-threats.

There were more than a dozen U.S. officials in on the calls.

It's just that Trump didn't know about them, thankfully.
